Well don't forget to regularly check your local version of kijiji/gumtree/craigslist is that blocket.se ? Then there's tradera and an app called Shpock which seems equivalent of offerup. Those are all general goods markets, but they will be where you find things for low prices if you keep checking them regularly. I think there's also Swedish Freecycle groups but some are more active than others.
Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.

This right here is a really good idea.
I also think that the information about vogons not allowing sales here should be more visible as buying/selling threads pop up really often.
Maybe there could be a notice to the right of the Preview/Submit/Save as draft buttons.
There are some local Swedish face book groups also. I haven't tested them but they seem legit. I really don't understand how Facebook works tbh cause I'm generally not interested in fake friends anymore.. Can't find what groups in in but search for 'retrodatorer'.

Yes, that's a good idea.

It's too bad this community doesn't seem to have an active Wiki, because this idea would probably work better as a community-maintained wiki page than a forum post.

There's VOGONSWiki but it isn't all that active (as you say):

How does logging into the vogonswiki work? It seems I already have an account but my regular vogons password doesn't work.
And if I click the forgot password link, this is what pops up:

You need to apply for an account. I did long time ago and never got an yes/no answer. Maybe because I didn't included CV...
